Sunscreen recs
I should know this by now since I burn in 5 minutes....
Is there a sunscreen out there that doesn't stink and feel gross?
I need to wear it daily thanks to fair skin, and already having a small spot removed from my chest. I don't want to feel gross & smell like sunscreen at work & meeting with customers though!
TIA!
Re: Sunscreen recs
I have super fair skin and I love Neutrogena Fresh Cooling Sunblock. (I use the SPF 70) It is super light weight and is really refreshing. It isn't sticky and goes on very thin, but works amazingly well!

I love Neutrogena. It's light and it isn't greasy. I haven't noticed any smell.
That's awesome! Thanks!
That body mist might be good for DH's head too.

He thinks he can go outside without any sunscreen like he used to when he was younger. Drives me bonkers that I have to remind him every time to put it on & include the top of his head if he's not wearing a hat.
I like the Neutrogena for faces. It doesn't make me break out or smell bad. I think they have a fragerance free.
Yes, this is what I meant.
Neurtogena and Aveeno are both good. Make sure you get sunscreen that blocks UVA/UVB rays. Also, there is no difference in the coverage you get from SPF 45 and SPF 70. They only add chemicals to make the SPF higher but you don't get any longer coverage or higher blockage from the higher number. I work for a dermatologist and he recommends SPF 15 - 45 and be sure to reapply every couple of hours.
We actually just got a journal article at our office that tested the different sunscreens and the store brand ones tested better than name brands for allergies, coverage and overall customer satisfaction. I use kroger sport SPF30 that is water and sweat proof. Works great! I use aveeno moisturizer that has 15 SPF in it on my face every day.
